Tommy lived a life full of laughter, music, and love for his family, his faith, and the great outdoors. Tommy had a deep passion for music, especially the timeless voice of Hank Williams. His favorite song, Help Me Understand, was one he often sang while playing his guitar—something he loved to do any chance he got. He could light up any room with a tune or a joke, always keeping everyone around him laughing and smiling. His sense of humor was one of his greatest gifts, and he shared it freely with everyone he met. Outside of music, Tommy found joy in hunting, fishing, and reading the Bible. His faith was a guiding light throughout his life, and he took great comfort in its words. More than anything, Tommy treasured time spent with his family. He was a father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle, brother, and friend—and he wore each title with pride and love. Tommy was never alone in his final days. His devoted daughter, Donna Dawn, stayed faithfully by his side, caring for him with unwavering love and strength. Her presence brought him peace and comfort beyond words. Tommy is now in Heaven, reunited with the love of his life, Sarah and no doubt singing and dancing with Hank Williams himself.He was preceded in death by his parents, Willie Mae and Cyler Marion Henderson; brother, Woodrow Henderson; sister, Louise Freeman (Harold); and sister-in-law, Joyce Henderson.
